I was shocked to learn that members like Hhampuz and Vod had no idea how the system worked and thought that I was adding people to DT2 by leaving them feedback for successful business deals.  Many people need to be educated how the system works.  I'm tired of being retaliated against by ignorant people for things I haven't done because they lack understanding of the system.  The last year or two would have been much less dramatic for me on this forum if users had a complete grasp of the system and what it's trying to achieve.  They might also then see how users like Lauda use their fake scam busting as a method to increase the damage they can inflict on honest members.

Also, in case someone jumps the first time to DT1 or DT2 it might make  sense to send out an automatic email to this member and explain him the implications. There is no info otherwise without checking. It would give the user time to check the trust before a fight occurs about settings or ratings other members don't like.

This would probably be helpful.  I know I was never even told I was placed on DT1 or what it was.  I didn't learn about the system until people started making crazy accusations about my use of it.
